Everyone enjoying the cold?!? Well whilst you’re indoors thawing out have a look at this tricky little scene. What I’d like to know is how many Cormorants are there in the shot, part or whole and where’s the Goldfinch.
No prizes for the winner, other than the fact you definitely shouldn’t need to go to Specsavers. Other opticians are available

Just to keep the post fresh. Weather looks OK for Sunday so it should be a good turn out. Hope some of you can come along and say hello.
Cheers

The M1 bridge comes up trumps again. Terrific set Gary. You’ve got some excellent detail in these. The last three in particular are superb.

mick c
take care all
I`ll go for 10 and Goldie bottom right on curved branch:)
goldie about 3ft up from nesting bird left hand side on same branch as nest?

Excellent stuff. Mick, good guesses but a bit wide of the mark. Gary, great shouts but not 100% right.
A few tips. Goldie is around life size so needs some careful examination and the Cormorants can be doubled up on nests or perches. Look carefully!
think i got 9 on first go and 10 on second think i will stick to 9..Goldie in bottom right corner.:)
I’m going for 12. Goldie I think is top left hand side about 1″ in from left 3/4″ down from top?
Alan, close but no cigar. Maggie, what can I say? Wrong sounds good
I can’t believe how good I am at these:-(
Could you do “spot the difference” next time. I am even better at those:-)
OK! 11 Cormorants and Goldie is indeed in the bottom right hand corner on the lighter coloured curved branch.
Well done everyone, not easy this.
